Ordering Information5.1 In order to make the application of this specif
16、icationcomplete, the purchaser needs to supply the following infor-mation to the seller in the purchase order and drawings:5.1.1 Title, ASTM designation number, and date of issue ofthis specification,5.1.2 Deposit by classification including class (see 4.1),type (see 4.2), and grade (see 4.3),5.1.3
17、Composition and metallurgical condition of the sub-strate to be coated,5.1.4 Location of significant surfaces (see 3.2),5.1.5 Heat treatment for stress relief, whether it has beenperformed by purchaser or is required (see 6.7),5.1.6 Heat treatment after electroplating, if required (see6.8),5.1.7 Any
18、 requirement for submission of sample coatedarticles,5.1.8 Whether or not location of rack marks is to be defined(see 6.3.1),5.1.9 Any requirement for special test specimens (see 8.1),5.1.10 Acceptance inspection procedure to be used (seeSection 8),5.1.11 Any requirement for certification (see Secti
19、on 10),and5.1.12 Any other items needing agreement. For the purposesof this specification, prior agreement on the nature of the finishis required as items plated in bulk may differ slightly inappearance from those that are rack plated.6. Coating Requirements6.1 SubstrateThe metal to be plated shall
20、be free of flawsand defects that will be detrimental to the zinc alloy coating. Itshall be subjected to such cleaning, pickling, and electroplatingprocedures as are necessary to yield deposits with the desiredquality.NOTE 1Proper preparatory procedures and thorough cleaning areessential to ensure sa
21、tisfactory adhesion and corrosion resistance perfor-mance of the coating. Materials used for cleaning should not damage thebasis metal. It is recommended that the following practices for cleaning beused, where appropriate: Practices B183 and B320, and Guides B242 andB322.6.1.1 The electroplating sha
22、ll be applied after all basis metalheat treatments have been completed.6.2 Nature of CoatingThe coating shall consist of a zinciron alloy that is approximately 99 mass % zinc and the balanceiron.6.3 Appearance:6.3.1 The coating on all readily visible surfaces shall havean acceptable and characterist
23、ic appearance as agreed upon bythe purchaser and seller. The coating shall be uniform insofaras the basis metal will permit. When the article is to be platedon a rack, contact marks may be unavoidable. Location of suchmark(s) shall be indicated on the article or its drawing.6.3.2 Defects and variati
24、ons in appearance that arise fromsurface conditions of the substrate (scratches, pores, roll marks,inclusions, and the like) and that persist in the coating despitethe observance of good metal finishing practices shall not because for rejection. The coating shall be adherent, free fromblisters, pits
25、, or discontinuities, and shall be free of cracks inthe as-plated state. Flaking shall be cause for rejection in eitherthe as-plated state or after subsequent operations.NOTE 2These coatings are commonly used in automotive applicationswhere subsequent forming, bending, and crimping operations are co
26、m-monly performed. These operations will necessarily detract from theperformance of the coatings. While some cracking of coatings will beunavoidable, flaking of the coating after these subsequent operations shallbe cause for rejection.NOTE 3Coatings generally perform better in service when thesubstr
27、ate over which they are applied is smooth and free of torn metal,inclusions, pores, and other defects. The specifications covering theunfinished product should provide limits for these defects.Ametal finishercan often remove defects through special treatments, such as grinding,polishing, abrasive bl
28、asting, chemical etches, and electropolishing.However, these are not normal in the treatment steps preceding theapplication of the coating. When they are desired, they are the subject ofspecial agreement between the purchaser and the seller.6.4 ThicknessThe thickness of the coating everywhere onthe
29、significant surfaces shall conform to the requirements asspecified in 4.2 and defined in 3.2.1.NOTE 4The coating requirement of this specification is a minimum.Variation in the thickness from point to point on an article and from articleto article in a production lot is inherent in electroplating. T
30、herefore, if allof the articles in a production lot are to meet the thickness requirement, theaverage coating thickness for the production lot as a whole will be greaterthan the specified minimum.6.5 AdhesionThe coating shall withstand normal handlingand storage conditions without chipping, flaking,
31、 or othercoating damage and shall conform to the minimum require-ments set forth in Section 8.6.6 Corrosion ResistanceThe corrosion resistance of thecoating may be evaluated using the method in Appendix X1.6.7 Pretreatment of Iron and Steel to Reduce the Risk ofHydrogen Embrittlement:6.7.1 Parts tha
32、t are made of steels with ultimate tensilestrengths of 1000 MPa (hardness of 31 HRC or greater) thathave been machined, ground, cold formed, or cold straightenedsubsequent to heat treatment shall require stress relief heattreatment when specified by the purchaser, the tensile strengthto be supplied
33、by the purchaser. Specification B849 may beconsulted for a list of pretreatments that are widely used.6.8 Coating Treatments of Iron and Steel to Reduce the Riskof Hydrogen Embrittlement:6.8.1 Parts that are made of steels with ultimate tensilestrengths of 1000 MPa (hardness of 31 HRC or greater) as
34、 wellas surface hardened parts, may require post-coating hydrogenembrittlement relief baking when specified by the purchaser,the tensile strength to be supplied by the purchaser. GuideB850 may be consulted for a list of post-treatments that arewidely used.B842 99 (2016)27. Sampling7.1 The sampling p
35、lan used for the inspection of a quantityof the coated articles shall be as agreed upon between thepurchaser and the seller.NOTE 5Usually, when a collection of coated articles, the inspectionlot (see 7.2), is examined for compliance with the requirements placed onthe articles, a relatively small num
36、ber of the articles, the sample, isselected at random and is inspected. The inspection lot is then classified ascomplying or not complying with the requirements based on the results ofthe inspection of the sample. The size of the sample and the criteria forcompliance are determined by the applicatio
37、n of statistics. This procedureis known as sampling inspection. Three standards, Test Method B602,Guide B697, and Test Method B762, contain sampling plans that aredesigned for the sampling inspection of coatings. Test Method B602contains four sampling plans, three for use with tests that are nondest
38、ruc-tive and one for destructive tests. The buyer and seller may agree on theplan or plans to be used. If they do not, Test Method B602 identifies theplan to be used. Guide B697 provides a large number of plans and alsogives guidance in the selection of a plan. When Guide B697 is specified,the buyer
39、 and seller need to agree on the plan to be used. Test MethodB762 can be used only for coating requirements that have a numericallimit, such as a coating thickness. The test must yield a numerical valueand certain statistical requirements must be met. Test Method B762contains several plans and also
40、gives instructions for calculating plans tomeet special needs. The buyer and the seller may agree on the plan orplans to be used. If they do not, Test Method B762 identifies the plan tobe used.NOTE 6When both destructive and nondestructive tests exist for themeasurement of a characteristic, the purc
41、haser needs to state which is tobe used so that the proper sampling plan is selected.Atest may destroy thecoating but in a noncritical area, or, although it may destroy the coating,a tested part can be reclaimed by stripping and recoating. The purchaserneeds to state whether the test is to be consid
42、ered destructive ornondestructive.7.2 An inspection lot shall be defined as a collection ofcoated articles that are of the same kind, that have beenproduced to the same specification, that have been coated by asingle supplier at one time or at approximately the same timeunder essentially identical c
43、onditions, and that are submittedfor acceptance or rejection as a group.7.3 If special test specimens are used to represent the coatedarticles in a test, the number used shall be that required in 8.1.1.8. Test Methods8.1 Special Test Specimens:8.1.1 The permission or the requirement to use special t
44、estspecimens, the number to be used, the material from whichthey are to be made, and the shape and size of the specimens,shall be stated by the purchaser.NOTE 7Test specimens often are used to represent the coated articlesin a test if the articles are of a size, shape, or material that is not suitab
45、lefor the test, or if it is preferred not to submit articles to a destructive testbecause, for example, the articles are expensive or few in number. Thespecimen should duplicate the characteristics of the article that influencethe property being tested.8.1.2 Special test specimens used to represent
46、articles in anadhesion, porosity, corrosion resistance, or appearance testshall be made of the same material, in the same metallurgicalcondition, and have the same surface condition as the articlesthey represent, and be placed in the production lot of and beprocessed along with the articles they rep
47、resent.8.1.3 Special test specimens used to represent articles in acoating thickness test may be made of a material that is suitablefor the test method even if the represented article is not of thesame material. For example, a low-carbon steel specimen mayrepresent a brass article when the magnetic
48、thickness test isused (seeTest Method B499).The thickness specimen need notbe carried through the complete process with the representedarticle. If not, introduce it into the process at the point wherethe coating is applied and carry it through all steps that have abearing on the coating thickness. I
49、n rack plating, rack thespecimen in the same way with the same distance from andorientation with the anodes and other items in the process asthe article it represents.NOTE 8When special test specimens are used to represent coatedarticles in a thickness test, the specimens will not necessarily have thesame thickness and thickness distribution as the articles unless thespecimens and the articles are of the same general size and shape.Therefore, before finished articles can be accepted on the basis of athickness test performed on special test specimens, the relatio
